Here's the Mustang solo on my '07 Road King Classic. Great seat, and very versatile with the passenger pillion.

Mustang solo w/removable backrest and Motherwell rack or a Mustang fender bib w/studs looks cool on my 06 RKC....IMO

Wrong answer.
I have a Mustang and they said they dont do them.

My vote has to go for the Corbin Classic Solo. Real leather and comes with the hole in it for a backrest. When you don't have the backrest in you can pull up on the tab, fold over another piece of leather and it covers up the backrest hole. It's a great riding seat and really supports you well.

Don't buy a Saddlemen. Poor quality. See this:

If you want more pics of my RK with the backrest, let me know.

Yachtman;

Is that a Mustang seat in the picture you posted? If you could, a picture with the backrest on would be useful, too.

I appreciate the help!

I have a Corbin (thanks Bigskyhd) with a back rest/pillion and a Saddleman Renegade Solo with back rest (sorry about that Yachtman - I must have the only good one they made). Here's the saddleman with a Motherwell rack:

Christophage;

The Corbin classic solo is a handsome seat. Are they comfortable for a long haul?

Danny Gray, but you have to order the version that accepts a backrest...not all Big Seats do.
